If you are really worried about it and can't have fun without having a powerful soloable character, then play the character that you think it "strongest" and have fun being a powerful. Otherwise, play the character you enjoy, accept your character's role in the game and have fun filling a slightly less powerful niche.My 2 cents.
That said, I agree with you but I'm not sure anything can be done about it.
Playing a lvl 25 wizard, I can only say one thing. You fighters get all the fun.
I agree, I wish I was a fighter again, instead of a high level wizard. Its fun to be a fighter, not so fun to be a wizard.
Clerics may get the best of both worlds, but Skalds truly have all the fun.*sings for the party, heals them up, curses the opposing drow, deathwails them to dust, then hacks up the itty bitty dust particles with a dwarven waraxe and taunts them*The best part is that some of the song DCs are based on total level too, so you can mix and match fighter/barbarian levels in between the bard/skald and still be just as scary. Another big thanks to Dorganoth & team for making this PrC so bloody fun!
